Question 1:
A metallic sphere of radius 4.2 cm is melted and recast into the shape of a cylinder of radius 6 cm. Find the height of the cylinder.
Answer:
Radius (r1) of hemisphere = 4.2 cm
Radius (r2) of cylinder = 6 cm
Let the height of the cylinder be h.
The object formed by recasting the hemisphere will be the same in volume.
Volume of sphere = Volume of cylinder
Hence, the height of the cylinder so formed will be 2.74 cm.
